Happy with the service
The driver was courteous and efficient and the journey went without a hitch. The roads after full of potholes but the driver deftly negotiated them.
Very helpful and organised
Lenard was very helpful and always on hand to answer questions and assistance. He was always on time and made me feel important.
Will contact again for sure!

Highly recommend: extremely competent, friendly, responsive and knowledgeable tour operator
Richard organized an amazing, custom made safari for us. The planning went smoothly via WhatsApp and email and Richsrd catered to all our wishes. Our guide Alfred was amazing, very friendly and knowledgeable. We spent the most amazing 12 days we could have ever imagined.
I highly recommend booking with Richard and Mali Kale - you will not regret it.

Amazing experience with Suricata Safaris!
Our experience with Suricata was amazing! Our guide and driver, Damian, was exceptional. He is very knowledgable, positive, fun and was good with keeping us safe! The chef, Salim, was outstanding. We had three very complete and delicious meals every day. He was also very kind and helpful. We also appreciated that we were picked up as soon as we arrived to Arusha and brought to our hotel. Daniel and Ali came to brief us before we started the trip, which was very nice as well. Overall, we really recommend Suricata. Their service is great and their crew will give you an unforgettable experience! Ps: Damian brings a lot of luck to your game drives. We got to see the big five and lots of other animals, all of which Damian knew a lot about!

Would totally recommend Cover Kenia Safaris!
Our trip was beyond our expectations and everything was very well organized and feel that we have had the best holiday with this company. We do travel a lot but this one was exceptional. We were given excellent services everywhere even when our tour was budget, which we felt that we were given the best services.
The guide, Mr Jim was well informed, professional and experienced.
We saw a lot of animals and ticked off all the big five!

The tour provider did everything to ensure that I had a wonderful safari.
The safari was beautiful, lots of animal sightings, lots of wildebeest, families of elephants and lots of lions among other things. Nature that keeps changing. I was there for 10 days and had a lot of time to admire the animals and nature. The accommodations were also great, luxury tents with shower and toilet. The driver was very reliable and always on time. When the tour changed, I was always asked. For example, during the wildebeest migration we changed the route and saw a lot of wildebeest.
I would book the safari again.

Good value for money. 4 parks in 5 days
The entire trip fulfilled my expectations. The communication with Jackson prior to the trip went very smoothly, email and whatsapp - he answered patiently and promptly to all my questions :-). He came to meet us up on the day before we left for safari to explain everything about the trip and he also took care of our larger suitcases. After the safari he met us up again, this time to deliver our suitcases at check-in at our next destination in Arusha (after safari) and to make sure that we had a pleasant safari. Also transport from and to the airport is included.
We were on a shared safari, meaning people jumped on and off at different parks and locations. It worked fine as it would have been much more expensive to charter a safari jeep for only 2 people. Our driver Assad was with us for our entire 5 day safari. He knows every corner of the parks and made us go through different roads to avoid other jeeps and to find animals. Yes, we managed to see the Big Five, though the rhino was in a very far distance. My favourite park? Ngorongoro crater due to the large number of animals. However, Serengeti was fantastic too :-). All the 4 parks had their own character.
We chose to go midrange, no camps and we are very happy with the different lodges and glampings provided. Breakfast and dinner (usually buffet) were all great. Our chef that came along made nice lunches, so much better than all the cardboard box lunches most of the other companies provided to their clients.
Any improvements:
I can only add to previous reviews regarding the visit of a "Masai village". I usually try to avoid these kind of visits wherever I go. We were asked if we wanted to stay at one of them and we were told it was a more authentic one, but I felt uncomfortable during the entire visit. A short dance, very few words about their daily lives and then we were invited to a hut where the man's wife and child were asleep. And then the mandatory visit to their shop. Awkward. I did not read or hear anything about any warnings prior to the visit.
